In my experience, there are 3 general styles of jungling: Gank-oriented, Carry-orient, and Objective-oriented.

For an overview read: Your text to link here...

Please note that I'm talking about generalizations, and typically what champions fill each play style. Some champions can do all three.

Feedback is greatly appreciated (even if it's angry feedback)!

Gank-oriented: Bad lategame, really strong early game, so they tend to gank a lot rather than farm to create pressure for their team. Lee Sin and Shaco are the best examples I can think of.

Carry-oriented: Great lategame, bad early game, its too dangerous for them to fight other champions so they tend to just farm up early game. Examples include Master Yi, Nautilus, Hecarim, Warwick, Amumu. However, the term is often generalized to champs that have a lot of damage lategame, so usually people use the term to just describe champs like Shaco, Master Yi, or Aatrox. It's very common to see these types of junglers build Madred's Razors and Spirit Stone so they can farm their jungle and get objectives faster than ganking junglers can get kills.

Objective-oriented: Usually the same as carry, but not always, since carry junglers tend to focus more on jungling than ganking, they'll usually respond to ganks by taking objectives. Usually these champions have skills that let them safely take objectives early on like, Nunu & Willump's Consume, Fiddlesticks' Bountiful Harvest, Master Yi's Highlander, Shaco's halucinate, etc.
